I wonder how many of the GGG stans giving him a pass over this were shitting on Rigo for asking for one against Loma.

and vice versa...

not i

i don't like ward but i've sided with ward and loma on this issue

smaller fighter "daring" a bigger one to come down in weight is universally ridiculous, you're beating a sick opponent

ward did it to pascal so he knows edit: meant dawson of course

It's already been explained to you bigjavi - Golovkin doesn't have to move up a weight class, there is no obligation to. The fact that they were willing to fight Chavez/Froch was about the reward (money, exposure/fame). It's no different than Mayweather willing to fight Canelo and Cotto at 154 but not guys like Lara. In other words, Mayweather would move up for the right kind of fights, otherwise he's staying at 147.

Lol at comparing Golovkin to Maywewther. Mayweather has moved up to face the #1 guy above him before. More than once. Golovkin hasnt. Dude, u've fallen off big time.

Don't blame GGG, he know Ward is not going to be easy as Froch or Chavez. He know at 168 Ward destroys him.

Ward is the biggest fight available for him atm. Cotto/Alvarez fighting each other.

Why doesn't Ward step up and fight Kovalev??? He cleaned out his whole division and now he wants to have a guy come up in weight to fight him??? I would favor Ward over GGG but I would favor Kovalev over Ward. That would be way more impressive not to mention Kovalev cleaned Hopkins clock and GGG is still looking for a defining victory.

why cant we see both? why cant we see ggg ward then ward kovalav why does it have to be one or the other

He moved up because it was HUGE money. Literally the biggest fight in boxing that could be made other than Pacquiao. He didn't move up just to fight the #1 guy for the hell of it. And there was a catchweight don't forget.

Ward's title will not be on the line. Golovkin has stated that he has no interest in any title at 168. That is why the catchweight does not bother me. If the title was on the line, I would not be in favour of it. Then again, Ward should have been stripped of his title long ago anyways.

Golovkin, is happy to fight Froch/Chavez at 168, but not Ward.

If you are happy with that, so be it.

Ward - in hindsight - will be credited with winning the Super-6, dominating 168, and then dominating 175...... whereas Golovkin is 33yo and his defining career highlight - to date - is blatantly ducking Andre Ward.

then just admit thats the reason tell the truth that ward is that good that we need the advantage but they would never do such a thing they want their fans to believe its just "negotiations" funny they didnt think wards team would try to make the fight now they look ******
